lovemybody 10 Posted April 20, 2016 I talked to the surgeon and anesthesiologist before surgery because I always get nausea and vomiting with narcotics. Rather than give me Zofran or something like it along with the narcotics, they gave me Tylenol and Ibuprofen both in the hospital (IV) and at home (OTC pills). Hasn't been a problem, but it is kind of odd since normally they have you stay away from IB. When I drink, I feel gas bubbles in my stomach. Almost like the Fluid I'm taking in is displacing gas in my stomach. Feels very odd. I'm having a hard time distinguishing between hunger, gas, and mild nausea. It all just feels so weird now. Now that some time has passed I hope that you are doing well with your recovery. I had my surgery 2/29/2016 and it took me 4 weeks to recover. I had to come home with oxygen because my levels were so low. Than 2 weeks after surgery I was so nauseated that they put me on two different types of meds that made me so tired. It literally took me 4 weeks before I could come back to work and week 5 I was just trying to get my energy levels back. I have had major Constipation during this time and major diarrhea at other times. Just trying to find my balance through all of this. Now at week 7 I am experiencing a weight loss stall. Who ever came up with the term that this is the easy way out should be SHOT! Would I do this all over again? Absolutely! But it certainly has been a life altering experience. Sending best wishes!!
